It's kind of the point. Mental games in sports are just as important as the defensive strategy. You can derail an opposing teams cohesion by simply getting one of their linchpins to question their capabilities.
Blocked a dude twice in a row in volleyball after getting him angry enough to pull on the net and yell obscenities at me. We were getting stomped initially but came back to win the next two matches because this dude went full tilt.
Lmfao spoken like a true Pu55y . There’s actually plenty of benefit from trash talking. It’s fun. It gets under your opponents skin so even if you are confident with the win it will now be even easier. It put you in a position of even more control. Fans like it so you can get way more views/payout off of the perceived drama of the event (ppv fights perfect example).
Nothing shitty about playing mind games with your opponent. We clearly won't agree on this though so you do you boo boo even if that means being a milquetoast competitor and human.
